You hold within yourself the gift of life - let us help you share it . . .

Our official name is the C.W. Bill Young Department of Defense Marrow Donor Program, but we are often called the DoD Marrow Donor Program or Salute to Life. We are located in Rockville, Maryland and have been in operation since 1991. We work exclusively with military personnel and their dependents, DoD civilian employees, Reservists, and Coast Guard and National Guard members to facilitate marrow and stem cell donations. We have recruited more than 800,000 individuals to fight against blood cancer and other fatal diseases. Each year, more than 12,000 people are diagnosed with diseases that require an infusion of stem cells; more than 70% of patients are unable to find an appropriate match within their own family and will require an unrelated donor (NMDP, 2013). We can help you honor life while still honoring your service commitments. Learn more about joining the registry, marrow and stem cell donation, and heroes like yourself…
